In fact, when he learned that Yu Xin'er was taken captive by the Divine Monarch, Xiao Jinxing breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that Xin'er's life would be safe, but he suddenly found that he had fallen for Lihua, and this was something he was willing to do.

Zhu Lihua said that he had a way to deal with Shenjun and Anan, so he reinvigorated his decadent self for a while, but in fact, Zhu Lihua's method had long been something that he had guessed in his heart and nothing new, but he just said it, and he was never convinced that his guess was true or false because of his great fear of Shenjun.

However, regardless of whether he is true or not, there is always no way to do it, and if he does, he may really be able to rescue Xin'er and exterminate the worm people.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jinxing, who was riding a horse towards Shenjing in the dark, suddenly laughed "haha" and shouted: "Then let's compare to see who can unify the world first." However, there are not many opportunities left for you. ”

After speaking, Xiao Jinxing ignored the Nangong Yu, Zheng Long and others around him who were looking at him in slight surprise, and suddenly waved the whip in his hand.

Hearing the sound of "pop", the war horse under Xiao Jinxing's crotch suddenly lifted up and ran towards Shenjing City at full speed.

The horse's hooves stepped on the stone paved with large blue stones, and there was a rapid clattering sound. Subsequently, a thousand Rong warriors also followed their own Da Dan and ran in the same direction of Shenjing City.

In the early spring of 596 in the Zhou calendar, Shenjing finally fell after a civil strife.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, 678 people from the royal family were burned in the Qilin Palace, and all of them were killed by the Rong people the next day.

The Zhou Dynasty, which had nearly 600 years of national ancestry, suddenly collapsed one day that no one expected, but the four feudal states that were attached to the Zhou Dynasty still stood between heaven and earth.

……

After Lu Lihua returned to Hedong County, he immediately divided his troops into 3,000 troops, led by Huang Yunhe, and escorted Mi Chunxi south to Chu State. On the other side, he sent a number of scouts to go to various places non-stop, and brought his instructions to mobilize people to fight in Huangyin to the town guards everywhere under his command.

The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings.

In the face of nearly 200,000 enemy soldiers approaching Huangyin under the city, Zhu Lihua didn't know why, and he no longer had the anxiety and sense of defeat in his heart when he left there to go to Shenjing.

And some are indescribably ruthless.

"Lord Gu, did Lord Zhao really decide to retire and stop asking about the current situation? You also know that in the current situation, if Lord Zhao can help me, it will be the best. ”

Outside Yaoping City, Zhu Lihua looked at Gu Daoyuan, who was frowning, and said solemnly, when he learned this very surprising news from Gu Daoyuan's mouth, although Zhu Lihua was not as shocked as others, he also said sincerely with a little worry.

But I saw Gu Daoyuan smile slightly, looked at Yu Lihua with deep meaning, and seemed to sigh a little and said:

"General Yuli, Lord Zhao bluntly said that he was too old and overwhelmed, and the matter of Shenjing also made him disheartened, so please don't blame General Yuli."

"Lord Zhao works hard for the country, and it is normal for people to feel tired, and no matter what, he will no longer force Lord Zhao to embarrass him.

It's just that I went to Moxian County to welcome Gongzi Hunlai Yaoping's succession, and I hope that Lord Gu will make proper arrangements, and the country can't be without a king for a day. Speaking of this, Zhu Lihua put away Fang Cai's amazement when he heard Zhao Zhihai's retreat, and changed to a look of embarrassment and continued:

"However, Lord Gu also knows that it is really impossible for Lord Gu to preside over the succession of this new monarch like a blind man touching an elephant, so I hope that Lord Gu can take full control of this matter.

Although the Huangyin War is about to begin, the matter of welcoming the new monarch to the throne must not be delayed for a moment because of the war. As long as the new monarch is on the throne, then the soldiers in front of me will have the backbone, and my Lihua will be able to fight in front safely. ”

After Lu Lihua finished speaking, Gu Daoyuan looked at his cold face, and his heart was as stunned as if he had overturned a five-flavor bottle.

Gu Daoyuan didn't have any awkward feelings about what Lu Lihua had just asked him, but it was difficult for him to accept Li Hua's attitude towards Zhao Zhihai when he retired.

A country is even more retiring, but it has to confess to a five-year-old doctor, and the meaning expressed by these five doctors between their words is to accept the accusation of the middle-aged man logically. During this period, there was no slightest humility and humility, let alone concessions and humility according to the number of courtesies, and Zhu Lihua only naturally accepted the change of power of the declining empire of Great Qin in just two or three sentences.

What does this mean, Gu Daoyuan naturally understands.

Subtly, Lu Lihua not only completely controlled the last power of Great Qin, but all the people living in Hedong County already regarded him as their last dependence.

And Zhu Lihua himself acquiesced to this, without the slightest fear because of Zhonggen's accusation.

Recalling what Zhao Zhihai had said to him the night before, Gu Daoyuan calmed down, and couldn't help but bend down deeply to the young man in front of him, and gave a big gift.

"The general is relieved to fight on the front line, Gu has already sent someone to send the funeral notice of Duke Qin to the three kingdoms of Qi, Chu and Shu, but I think the three kingdoms will not send people to come to mourn.

Therefore, the ceremony to welcome the new monarch to the throne will march from Jane to speed, and there will be no delay in the battle ahead.

In addition, Gu also agreed with the decree that General Yuli ordered Lord Xizi to implement in Hedong County, so Gu also made the same popular strategy in several cities around Yaoping, allowing me to recruit 20,000 soldiers in just a few months. ”

After Gu Daoyuan finished speaking, Zhu Lihua nodded slightly. He knew that Gu Daoyuan was expressing his heart to him, and perhaps it was also a vote for himself in a sense.

As a nobleman with such a high rank, he was able to agree with and implement Lihua's new policy without mentioning the killing of nobles by Lihua, which was already a huge concession.

Zhu Lihua stretched out his hand and gently held Gu Daoyuan's arm, and smiled slightly at this old man like the Great Qin Pillar Kingdom: "Lord Gu has been in the center for a long time, and this matter of politics and people's livelihood is originally Lord Gu's strength, so Lord Gu's approach must be not wrong."

But Lord Gu can't just look at this county, after all, the small Hedong County, how many people can the limited land be distributed to.

In the future, when we recruit soldiers, we may need to use more yellow and white things than the temptation of food, grass and land. ”

Gu Daoyuan's brows furrowed visibly after hearing Zhu Lihua's words.

I think that when these people came to Hedong from the Qin State, it was a slight transfer at best, but in essence, they were chased by the Rong people like lost dogs, so how could they come from yellow and white things.

While thinking about the meaning of Zhu Lihua, he looked at Zhu Lihua cautiously, and wanted to ask about the voice of Zhu Lihua's words.

But Zhu Lihua didn't want to sell Gu Daoyuan, so before Gu Daoyuan could speak, he beckoned to Gu Daoyuan who came over and whispered:

"There is no longer a Son of Heaven in Shenjing, but it is the most prosperous and wealthy place in the world, Lord Gu can send someone to spread the news to Shenjing, saying that the merchants of the world come to our Qin State to operate and only collect half of the business taxes of other countries, and if we hope to restore the country in the future, these merchants who come to my Hedong County to do business will give priority to the power of officials and businessmen."

After Gu Daoyuan heard Lihua's words, his eyes suddenly widened, he didn't understand why Lihua would think of such an incredible idea, didn't he know that Shenjing had been occupied by the Rong people.

But Zhu Lihua looked at Gu Daoyuan's expression and knew what Gu Daoyuan was afraid of, so he explained to Gu Daoyuan: "Shan Yu of the Rong people just smuggled into the Yellow Water to help Nangong Yu seize Shenjing, because the news that the Qi State had not lost its territory came, since this is the case, it means that Shan Yu will go north again sooner or later."

And the Shenjing Bureau is likely to be presided over by Nangong Yu, maybe soon, there will be a new Son of Heaven in this world, a puppet Son of Heaven who is supported by the Rong people.

Therefore, there will not be many forces in the Zhongrong people of Shenjing under the auspices of Nangong Yu, because the reason why Da Shan Yu controls Shenjing is actually the same calculation as me.

That is to turn Shenjing into a money warehouse and granary for the Rong people.

Since the Rong people entered the customs, after countless battles, the land they divided has already been divided, and those Rong people who are about to enter the customs also need land to live and reproduce.

Therefore, Da Shan Yu had no choice but to set his sights on Shenjing, hoping that the merchants there would be able to obtain money for him to recruit the soldiers and horses that were constantly depleting. ”

"I see, General Yuli has decided to follow the example of the Rong people and compete for profit in their mouths?"

Gu Daoyuan only understood Lu Lihua's thoughts at this time, and at the same time, he was a little shocked that Lu Lihua was able to see the purpose of the Rong people through the fall of Shenjing.

Therefore, his tense face eased slightly, and at the same time, he seriously thought about the whimsical plan of Zhu Lihua.

"Yes, is it only allowed to profit from the Rong people, and why can't we get a piece of the pie?"

Yu Lihua looked at Gu Daoyuan with a smile, until a trace of essence flashed in the old man's eyes, and then he continued:

"Lord Gu can inform the merchants of Shenjing that as long as they come to my Hedong County, they can do business within any range, including Shangdang and the entire territory of Hedong, and the soldiers and horses of our Qin State will protect their safety.

At the same time, if Lord Gu is concerned about Nangong Yu and the defenders of Shenjing, then he can go to find someone first, and I believe that he will definitely help us. ”

"Who?"

Gu Daoyuan, who lowered his head and listened carefully to Lihua's voice, immediately raised his head and asked after hearing Lihua's words. But when he saw the smiling face of Lihua, he suddenly looked like he had violated etiquette, and quickly lowered his head again.

But at the same time, there were two undetectable words in his ears:

"Zheng Long!"

Looking at Gu Daoyuan, who was silent for a long time after hearing his words, Zhu Lihua smiled slightly and arched his hand and said loudly: "In this case, the rear will be entrusted to Lord Gu, Lord Zhang and all of you." ”

After saying that, he did not leave in the return salute of everyone, but nodded slightly to Ma Yuan, who was standing next to Zhang Ziyu, and said:

"Brother Ma, this remote city defense and security brother will entrust it to you."
